The bluetooth glucose meter is specially designed to simplify diabetes management by giving you vital information in an easy-to-read way. Any time you test your sugars with the OKRA Pro glucose meter, the meter will automatically sync your test results to our app via bluetooth. DATA TRACKING OKRA’s glucometer app stores users’ test results to help them manage their diabetes more effectively every day. You can connect your device with the mobile app via bluetooth, allowing you to easily access precise glucose level readings. In mere minutes, you’ll have detailed information about your glucose levels, including: date of test, testing time [before meal, after meal, post medicine], blood sugar levels, test number count/test strip count, and etc. STAY ON TRACK WITH REMINDERS The glucometer app will also send you notifications and reminders so that you don’t forget to test your sugars, log your meals, and input medications. This feature can be life-saving on very busy days, giving you the little nudge you need to keep your sugars at safe levels. MEAL LOG & CARB COUNTS Simply input which foods you ate and it will automatically detect and calculate how many carbs it has. This can give you even more data, so you can track how different foods impact your sugars and your health. This kind of data can make a world of difference in someone’s diabetes management, and the bluetooth glucose meter gathers and stores that data automatically so you don’t have to think about it! What’s more, is that the OKRA Pro model allows you effortlessly sync all of your data and export it as well. GENERATE REPORTS This data is easy to access and intended to help present useful information for your health as a diabetes patient, with charts, graphs, and other reporting tools to make your diabetes management easier. Some of those reports include food log details on your levels during the following times: * Before meal * After meal * Post medicine * Post workout * Control solution Keep your medical care providers up to date on your diabetic measurements. You can generate reports from all the data and logbooks inside the application and share with your loved ones too! NEVER RUN OUT OF TEST STRIPS - STOCK UP! In addition to saving your diabetes test results, our bluetooth glucometer helps you keep your testing supplies fully stocked up. The app keeps track of your test strip count, then automatically orders more for you when it seems you might be running low. This is just another way that OKRA Care is working to make diabetes management easier for everyone. We know that living with diabetes requires a lot of you and your family— and sometimes, it can feel like the only thing you ever think about. Between testing your blood sugars, keeping your sugars at a safe level throughout the day, and keeping track of your diabetes management tools, the whole process can become overwhelming, especially if you already have a busy schedule. OKRA Care helps you keep it simple and convenient.
